Buy books online from Fishpond.com.au, Australias best online book store. We sell lots of new and used books, music and movies online at discount pricesBooks. Australia - It's shopping made easy.
I bought a textbook from Fishpond for about 70% of the price in most bookstores. Shipping was free for my item but even including shipping, which varies per book- their prices are extremely competitive. Shipping was quite quick and came after 4 days of ordering.
I have used fishpond before for my children's school books. I always make sure I do a price check and usually they are the cheapest. This time I bought a text book, delivered to my door for nearly half the price of the local bookshop without delivery. Saves me a lot of time and money.
I purchased a cook book from this site for about $25. It was an Australian cook book so I wasn't able to buy it from any of the overseas sites like Amazon. Fishpond offered the cheapest price around and free shipping. It arrived within a week of ordering it and was packaged well so it arrived undamaged. Was quite happy and would shop there again.
Have purchased from Fishpond.com.au many times. Recent purchase was Mario Bros jigsaw puzzle and a science circuit kit - Snap Circuits Extreme SC-750 (which is only available in the USA).
Prices are usually cheaper than other online stores selling the same product. However you need accept the cheaper price for the long shipping times. Shipping is free for all items which is a bonus but again you need to be patient with the delivery times.
I purchased the science circuit kit on 21/10/2012 and it still not here. In saying that Fishpond do send updates on the revised shipping dates, and will cancel the item if you wish not to proceed with buying due to delays in delivery. Once thing they do is if you have multiple items on one purchase they will ship individual items seperately.
I would purchase from here again but having past experience I wouldn't order any urgent items as delivery times are unpredictable.
I accidentally stumbled across this website whilst searching for Peppa Pig and Octonauts books. I purchased 9 books for around half the price as you would find in ABC stores and shipping was free! Supplier was in the UK too. Items were dispatched in groups which was a bit strange...received 2 to 3 items separately over 1 week. packaged ok - in cardboard. lucky books were not damaged. could have been packaged better though. but all in all, my items arrived safely in perfect condition. This website sells all types of things. Good idea to sign up for emails. will buy from again if any good deals pop up.
I purchased a cookbook: Iron Chef Chen's Knockout Chinese at a very good price here. Other places are a lot more expensive and that's not including shipping prices. Here, the shipping is not only free, the prices are a lot lower. Also, the shipping was fast, prompt and sometimes comes before the indicated estimated arrival date. I would definitely continue shopping here.
I ordered "Every Grain of Rice", a cookbook by Fuchsia Dunlop on 23 April 2013. I received an immediate order confirmation, and on 24 April, an order update stating that a third party, "Books Fiction" had been notified to ship the item. It was estimated that delivery take between 7-10 days, and book was received on 2 May 2013. Item was well packaged and came with all the required invoicing.
Very happy with my first Fish Pond experience. I may not need to order from Book Depository any more!
